Submitting Documents

Submitting in Person

If submitting in person, bring the original document to the Clerk and Recorder's Office during regular business hours at:
449 San Juan St.
Pagosa Springs, CO 81147

Processing

If your document meets all of the requirements, and you pay the appropriate fees, your document will be recorded in the order it was received. We will keep the document for processing as an image. The image will become part of the public records. Once the document has been recorded, we will mail the original back to the name and address stated on the first page of the document. This will take approximately two-three business days. See our helpful checklist for submitting to make sure you have everything you need.

Submitting by Mail

If submitting by mail, please include a check or money order for the amount of the appropriate recording fees. Make checks payable to Archuleta County Clerk and mail the documents and payment to:
Archuleta County Clerk and Recorder's Office
P.O. Box 2589
Pagosa Springs, CO 81147

Processing

Once we have received your documents and payment, we will determine if it will be accepted or rejected. If it is rejected, your unrecorded document and payment will be mailed back to you with an explanation. Accepted documents will be processed the same day they are received. See our helpful checklist for submitting to make sure you have everything you need.

Ordering Copies

If you need a copy of your recorded document, please include a payment of 25 cents per page with a self-address envelope. Copies from the older, large books are $1.25 per page.
